I am still really high on Vaccaro, and hopefully Byrd can return to the form he showed w the Bills. My question is what's it gonna take for these guys to really shine? There's no reason why we shouldnt have the top-rated secondary in the NFL.

Improved pressure from the D-Line, better tackling from the linebackers, and most importantly better play from the corners... If we get solid play from the cornerback position, Byrd will not have to worry about holding P-Rob's or White's hand anymore because they couldn't cover worth a damn...

Same things that always help safeties shine... Better pass rush and coverage. Oh, and also officially making Vacarro the nickel CB and using a left/right safety setup with Byrd and Warren would be a good idea.

Evidently the issue is far deeper the Ryan...I can't think of one defensive player that we have truly developed over the past decade.

I think that's just kind of the way it is when a team has an offense-minded head coach calling all the shots. Could be worse... The Jets had a defense-minded coach in Rex Ryan and they couldn't develop an offensive player to save their lives. It's hard to find that balance.

I am still low on Vaccarro. He does have talent, I admit and I love the attitude ha plays with. I hope he proves me wrong. The secondary does look loaded though. Payton's not playing anymore though, he'll have to earn a starting spot. Hopefully the front 7 can get pressure and stop the run. Then the secondary can really shine.
